This is an odd one. I routinely hear a local broadcast FM radio station (KWYE 101.1 based in Fresno) on marine VHF channel 23 (157.150). This is rather peculiar to me. Could it be IMD? I've never heard of a broadcast station transmitting on Marie VHF before...

Update... The freq is actually 161.750 MHz. I hadn't tuned it in my FT-7900R lately and forgot it was actually the secondary freq. Also, a Markne VHF handheld we have at work also receives te broadcast.
